We all know Jason Quinn is an outspoken person, but did you know he's a pretty good speaker, too? It makes sense, since he's been on TV and the Internet a bunch, but if you haven't seen Playground's head honcho talk about anything yet, here's your chance.

Earlier this month, Quinn spoke about his pathway to success, failing, and finding his audience at Connecting Things, a monthly speaker series focused on creative professionals. It's a solid talk (they all are), and it's particularly funny, and kind of inspiring, so check it out after the jump.

If you're interested in attending the next talk, you should know: They're early, with people showing up around 8 a.m., but they're worth it. You get some free coffee (provided last time by Truman over at Hopper and Burr), free breakfast, and there'll be a bunch of beautiful, interesting people for you to meet.
